Since manuscript Becker III.8.63 notates the music on just two staves, it is most of the tmes a bit of a guess wether or not a the pedals have a role or not. Sometimes long bass notes have an explicit indication "P" next to them. For the rest it is as if the music is meant to be played manualiter. The prelude in A major, L 19, is no exception in this regard. It is notated on two staves and bears no indication of the use of the pedals. Nevertheless, to my ears, this composition begs the use of a strong plenum registration and in line with that, use of the pedals. Notated in dotted rythm, the use of plenun and pedals are in line with the forcefull character of the piece.

As there is no indication of the use of the pedals, the decision to nevertheless use them, brings the question: which bass-notes to play with the pedals and which with the hands. I don't think the pedals should be used all the time. There is for example the fact that Seger's own organ, the organ in the Týn Church in Prague, had a pedal section that went to the note A in the small octave. Any notes above that could not be played with the pedals. And in this particular piece, I think an alternation between the left hand and the pedals is called for. Which notes I do and do not play with the pedals is therefore my own choice and is not in any way prescribed by the manuscript. In the score I give no indication for the use of the pedals either. Whether or not to use the pedals and which notes to play with them is entirely left to the musical taste of the player.

The recording was done with the Hauptwerk software and the sampleset, made by Sonus Paradisi, of the Schnittger organ in the St. Martini-kerk, Groningen (https://www.sonusparadisi.cz/en/organs/netherlands/groningen-st-martini.html).

The ninth Fantasia from manuscript Becker II 51, owned by the Leipziger Stadtbibliothek, is based on two themes or motives. Both are introduced in the first 6 bars of the fantasia. Though it is perhaps tempting to say that the first one of these two is the main theme and the second one is the counter subject, they turn out to be equally important in the development of the fantasia. The fantasia is roughly devided into four sections, the outer two of which feature both motives. The two middle, shorter sections are each based on one of the two motives. All in all a very well written piece and a joy to play.

The recording was done with the Hauptwerk software and the sampleset, made by Sonus Paradisi, of the Janke organ in the Stadtkirche of Bückeburg (https://www.sonusparadisi.cz/en/organs/germany/buckeburg-janke-organ.html).

First a word for @hivewatchers: if you do your research properly, as you should, you'll see that this post is published a day before the score is published on my website. Now, that would be quite a trick if I wasn't the original author, wouldn't it?

The 18th composition from manuscript Becker III.8.63 is a prelude in B flat major. It is a nice play with the motif introduced in bars two and three. The prelude wanders up and down the circle of fifths, thus giving it structure. The prelude starts in B flat major (obviously) and subsequently touches the tonalities of F major, d minor, g minor, c minor, f minor, E flat major, c minor, g minor and back to B flat major. The final bars are a long dominant section before the pece concludes on a B flat major chord.

The recording was done with the Sweelinq software and the sampleset of the Vierdag organ in the Grote Kerk, Leeuwarden (https://sweelinq.com/product/leeuwarden-nl-grote-kerk-muller-organ/).

The score will be available on my site tomorrow, with this link: https://partitura.org/index.php/josef-ferdinand-norbert-seger-praeludium-b-dur-l-18

Just a short clip to test the 3speak app on my phone

On my phone it seems to work, the video did indeed upload. On my pc however, I can't upload anything. Or beter: the viedo seems to upload, but after that nothing happens when I click on "save".

Does somebody have an idea what I can do to make it work on my pc?

Curious thing: the new text I now type in this post, does not appear on the 3Speak-front-end nor does it appear in the app. I am not sure I understand how this is supposed to work...

O, I can edit the text on the 3speak front end and import the changes I made in peakd.com. I am typing this paragraph in 3 speak. I gather it won't turn up in the Hive-post,
